Missile=Awesome Posted August 6, 2020 Report Posted August 6, 2020 Couple photos of Paul Beck’s completed three step tank re-sealing process looks like at completion. Also a photo of wing after re-assembly of panels and re-finish of wingwalk. Match painted screws are re-used and red and white touch up completed as necessary. Just outstanding work... Plane down <2weeks. Truly amazing. I don’t think Paul would mind my sharing that his youngest son is going to pursue his A&P after graduating High School, following his oldest son and Paul into the Certified ranks. Gives me hope for the future of Aviation and our country when young are pursuing careers and achieving success. Go Mooney! Go Aviation! Go USA! 2 Quote

Art, I don’t think there was any paint damage from chemical as the tanks are sealed when strip is completed. When you remove the individual panels you can get some small paint spot removal as the plane is painted with the access panels in place. On underside (white) very difficult to notice and easy touch-up. Top red, darker, more noticeable? Regardless this is “minor” paint touch-up. Paul provides a bottle of white and red so we will be able to do minor chip fixes on cowl and other areas which is nice. Quote

Yooper Rocketman Posted August 8, 2020 Report Posted August 8, 2020 So Scott posts a beautiful woman in a swim suit (that's on the site through ads!!) and gets one like before mine. Chris posts his, shall we say rather large woman, in swim wear and gets +4. For a group of pilots proud of fit, clean and fast airplanes (Mooney), I'm baffled. You guys really need to "raise the bar". Tom (NEVER been a fan of Marauder's girls. Just ask the trash (puke) can next to my computer.) 2 Quote

Missile=Awesome Posted August 11, 2020 Report Posted August 11, 2020 CID/ Cedar Rapids Iowa was devastated with straight line sustained winds gusting over 80mph yesterday. Tremendous property damage. No power to 95% of city including airport. Could not secure plane in hanger due to no power. 2020 is a tough year... 1 Quote

Hank Posted August 12, 2020 Report Posted August 12, 2020 (edited) Sad news, but good about the plane. Hope your home is equally unhurt. We had a derecho come through WV a few years back. It was unsettling watching all of the tornadoes and suspected tornadoes going through for hours on all TV channels. All we lost was power and water for a week, with daily temps in the high 90s. Best wishes for you and yours!! Edited August 12, 2020 by Hank 1 Quote

House is damaged (roof/siding/trim) but we are insured and MANY have it much worse with downed mature trees on houses and some IN house Farms crops still being assessed, but millions of acres impacted. Many farm and coop bins impacted that will have long term storage ramifications... Quote
Missile=Awesome Posted August 13, 2020 Report Posted August 13, 2020 48 hours without electricity...and we’re outta there...Dodged a cell and saw ground speeds of 170-180 knots burning 12.2 at 7500. Microwave popcorn tasted especially good. Lol 1 Quote
Missile=Awesome Posted August 13, 2020 Report Posted August 13, 2020 Beautiful biplane at D25 ALL summer providing rides to public. Pilot to rear with dual open cocpit up front. Awesome radial sounds... Quote
Missile=Awesome Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 Plane in for annual and this was found. Compromised Intake Hose Coupler. Any input on what one could expect operationally from this occurrence? Thankfully a Continental part readily available. New replacement ordered. Quote
carusoam Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 Operationally, you may see air entering through the coupling... The change of A:F ratio, when large enough, will show up on the engine monitor... making your GAMI spread larger... See if the gami spread changes with the new one in place... Expect that unfiltered air may be entering the intake this way... This all may depend on where that coupling was... there may be five others just like it..? Best regards, -a- 1 Quote
